If I was bad in February, I was very bad in March. Out of control, insane...
Broke.

I'm pretty amazed that I read so little fiction in March, but I read several short stories from magazines and collections I haven't finished, and only finished books are included here. But back in January I said I wanted to read more non-fiction, so there you have it. Once again, highly recommended books are linked.

What did you think of the Koufax book?
Excellent. Not your typical sports bio, but rather more of an understanding of a pitcher most people think of as reclusive, distant. A great technique the writer uses - each inning of Koufax's most famous game is a chapter with each "inning" separated with a chapter of bio. Highly recommended.
